The greyhole service is refusing to start. I tried the troubleshooting steps from the wiki (clearing work queue) as well as the last couple posts here in the forums where the service wouldn't start. Greyhole was set to auto-update until about a week ago but I removed the repo when I got tired of having to recreate the symbolic link when it did. The landing zone filled up but I freed up space and the log is still spitting out an error I can't seem to google an answer for. I recently added a new drive and noticed the problem when I came back a few hours after launching a balance only to see nothing had moved. In the process of backing up a few of the smaller shares so I can make more space in /var/hda/files/gh in case a little more free space will allow it to work.

Thanks for the help.

The greyhole log is full of the following:

I would say to check the permissions of the gh folders. Also there is a newer version available. You might wanna upgrade to the latest. I am running it on Fedora and no issues.

I loaded up myphpadmin and renamed metastore_backup_directory to a backup value. Service started right up and everything is working now. No clue what caused the problem in the first place.
